In the menu on the left, under General Settings, click System Settings.

The licence card at the top shows the product, when the licence expires and when it was last checked. Check Now asks the licence server again.

Below it, the company settings, section by section:

• Company Logo and Company Name — a PNG or JPG of up to 2 MB.
• System Currency and Currency Symbol — a label only. Pay is calculated in the default currency under Currencies and exchange rates; keep the two the same.
• Leave Range Behavior — whether a leave year is the Calendar Year (Jan - Dec) or runs from each person’s Employment Anniversary.
• Apply Leave on Day Off — on, days off inside a leave range count as leave; off, they are left out.
• Default Leave Hours — the hours one day of leave is worth. 0 uses the length of the person’s shift that day.
• Enable Overtime and Overtime Rate — whether overtime is paid in salaries, and at what multiple of the hourly rate: 1.5 is time and a half.
• Messaging Layout — chat bubbles or email threads, for everyone (see Sending a message).
• Auto Generate Employee ID — on, a new employee gets the next free number; off, you type it (see Adding an employee). The Enable Inspection Module switch beside it is covered in Switching modules on and off.
